Download or read book Trapped by Tourism written by Larry Krotz and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-10-15 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travel was once a way in which the world changed us. Now, it is a way in which we change the world. Twenty-five years ago, two things made mass tourism possible: cheap air travel and the credit card. The world has come a long way since then—and very quickly—from the need for either travel agents or traveler’s checks. From the now-vast cruise ship industry to a myriad of niche areas such as do-good tourism, self-improvement tourism, sex tourism, and adventure tourism, travel—as an industry and an activity—reaches into corners and has developed on scales not hitherto imagined. In Trapped by Tourism: Sustainability Questions for a World Fueled by Travelers, Larry Krotz explores the tensions that formed with the rise of mass tourism, focusing on what travelers want vs what travelers do and the sustainability of tourism itself, both as it plays out in economies and as a factor impacting natural and cultural environments. We will never shut down tourism. We are destined to have it and to participate in it. But what truly are its implications for the world we live in? If communities and governments seek economic benefits, they must also look at the trade-offs: commodification of cultures, economic unfairness, environmental stresses, and much more. By delving into examples ranging from the wine industry to Indigenous communities, Krotz looks at how what we do and how we do it affects important corners of the world, and how awareness has developed about steering the impacts in ways that work for everybody. Trapped by Tourism takes readers around the world to locations such as the old cities of Europe, Indigenous communities in North America and Africa, wine growing regions in Canada, the island of Cuba, and Cathedral towns in England; places where tourism as an economic driver come up against environmental or cultural forces that push in exactly the opposite direction, creating tensions within today’s mass tourism. The result is a thoughtful and provocative framework that encourages readers and travelers alike to consider an ever-growing component of our culture—the way we travel and the impact we leave behind.

Download or read book Walking Methodologies in a More than human World written by Stephanie Springgay and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-22 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a research methodology, walking has a diverse and extensive history in the social sciences and humanities, underscoring its value for conducting research that is situated, relational, and material. Building on the importance of place, sensory inquiry, embodiment, and rhythm within walking research, this book offers four new concepts for walking methodologies that are accountable to an ethics and politics of the more-than-human: Land and geos, affect, transmaterial and movement. The book carefully considers the more-than-human dimensions of walking methodologies by engaging with feminist new materialisms, posthumanisms, affect theory, trans and queer theory, Indigenous theories, and critical race and disability scholarship. These more-than-human theories rub frictionally against the history of walking scholarship and offer crucial insights into the potential of walking as a qualitative research methodology in a more-than-human world. Theoretically innovative, the book is grounded in examples of walking research by WalkingLab, an international research network on walking (www.walkinglab.org). The book is rich in scope, engaging with a wide range of walking methods and forms including: long walks on hiking trails, geological walks, sensory walks, sonic art walks, processions, orienteering races, protest and activist walks, walking tours, dérives, peripatetic mapping, school-based walking projects, and propositional walks. The chapters draw on WalkingLab’s research-creation events to examine walking in relation to settler colonialism, affective labour, transspecies, participation, racial geographies and counter-cartographies, youth literacy, environmental education, and collaborative writing. The book outlines how more-than-human theories can influence and shape walking methodologies and provokes a critical mode of walking-with that engenders solidarity, accountability, and response-ability. This volume will appeal to graduate students, artists, and academics and researchers who are interested in Education, Cultural Studies, Queer Studies, Affect Studies, Geography, Anthropology, and (Post)Qualitative Research Methods.

Download or read book Sacred Sea written by Peter Thomson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-08-29 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Siberia's Lake Baikal is one of nature's most magnificent creations, the largest and deepest body of fresh water in the world. And yet it is nearly unknown outside of Russia. In Sacred Sea--the first major journalistic examination of Baikal in English--veteran environmental writer Peter Thomson and his younger brother undertake a kind of pilgrimage, journeying 25,000 miles by land and sea to reach this extraordinary lake. At Baikal they find a place of sublime beauty, deep history, and immense natural power. But they also find ominous signs that this perfect eco-system--containing one-fifth of earth's fresh water and said to possess a mythical ability to cleanse itself--could yet succumb to the even more powerful forces of human hubris, carelessness, and ignorance. Ultimately, they help us see that despite its isolation, Baikal is connected to everything else on Earth, and that it will need the love and devotion of people around the world to protect it.
Download or read book The Sheguiandah Site written by Archaeological Survey of Canada and published by Hull, Quebec : Canadian Museum of Civilization. This book was released on 2002 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sheguiandah site on Manitoulin Island is a rare upper Great Lakes stratified Paleoindian & Archaic site, with alleged earlier cultural materials at the base of the site. The site was discovered & first excavated in the early 1950s but work was never completed and the site remained enigmatic and controversial. Reinvestigation of existing collections of site material and renewed field investigations began in 1989-1990. This book brings together available information on the site, including the re-investigations and subsequent research on the site's geological and paleoenvironmental history. It begins with a history of the initial investigations of the 1950s and continues with chapters on the role of heritage planning in the re-investigations, geoarchaeology, projectile point artefacts, Quaternary geology & stratigraphy & sedimentology of the site, upper Great Lakes climate & water level changes since 11,000 years ago and their effects on the site, the geological history of the site, and the characteristics of quartzite & other potential sources of raw material for the artefacts. The final chapter synthesizes archaeological conclusions regarding the Sheguiandah site and its contribution to the understanding of Paleoindian & subsequent occupations in the upper Great Lakes.
